Cool Cars Thread

4Running Daily · May 27, 2014

A couple months ago I asked James [MENTION=25058]ChildrenOfBodom[/MENTION] about the reliability and overall quality of a 2004 Mercedes E500. Well, meet my Mom's new daily driver.
2004 Mercedes E500 with Harman Kardon sound and a thirsty V8 with only 41,000 miles. Detailed it this morning.

I'm sure its a wrap, theres a place in town that does them. Theres a Scion thats almost fully covered in what looks like bumper stickers, except its a wrap. Its cool to look at but never ever to drive.

Interesting. Similar to the rusted hood trend from a couple years ago. Thanks for posting!

Saw an R35 for the first time today, was pretty stoked to finally see one in person! :reddance: Also saw a pretty cool looking Nismo 350Z yesterday but didn't take a picture.

Purple Diablo parked in front of the local ice cream stand last night.

Immediately after it left, a CL65 AMG with the biturbo V12 pulled up. Didnt get a pic of that one, but it was quite a day for ice cream!

Couple days ago, leaving a restaurant - Ferrari F355 Berlinetta with the F1 transmission. Only a little over 1,000 ever made. It was the first road car to have what I understand to be, essentially a paddle shifting gear box.

I dig the Ferrari, but that other ride is super cool too! Is that yours? Is it a Chevy? Can't tell.

I agree! I am not sure what it is however, I think it had a bit a body work done, and I am not good w/ classic cars. My cousin who I was with knows, but I cant get a hold of him. Maybe one of you will know better than I.

Few more of that car for ya -

The ferrari is cool but I would rather have the Plymouth and the cash needed to buy the ferrrari :biggrin1:

The Plymouth is a 1946 to 1948 model.

So we can blame that Ferrari F355 for starting the horrible trend of putting automatics in Sports cars?

Well I would say, this was only the first steet car Ferrari put their F1 style electro hydraulic trans in- you can blame F1 and the quest for better advertised 0-60 times in consumer cars haha

I had a lot of these piling up... time to make some posts.

Now I am not a huge fan of the Porsche Boxster... this particular one was being driven by a blonde girl. "Little Bastard" on the back. She made it her own with those pink ass wheels lol. Better than a stock one I guess.
